For some time, enterprise solutions have enabled a common source of data, timely
information and standardized processes. But today, enterprise solutions are
challenged to keep pace with organizations’ demands. Organizations have diverse
and disparate applications, they require intelligence real timeand their business
processes are increasingly complex. Companies find themselves operating against
a background of overwhelming complexity and lacking integration across their portfolio
of technologies. Most organizations know that they must harness existing resources
to achieve high performance. But how can they support new, extended business processes,
exploit untapped data and better empower their people given the limitations of current
applications? And how do they overcome the problems of integration to reduce
the 12-month lag between business opportunity and IT solution realization?
Aligning people, process and data
N2N can help organizations raise their performance through strategies designed to
align people, processes and data. Working with clients who have either SAP or heterogeneous
environments, N2N is bringing together processes and components from existing business
applications to support newly conceived business processes in innovative ways. With
limited IT investment, N2N is showing organizations that significant incremental
value can be driven from the technology that’s already in place.
What is Netweaver ?
SAP NetWeaver consists of seven components and three tools. It's components include
SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure, SAP Business Intelligence, SAP Enterprise Portal,
SAP Exchange Infrastructure, SAP Master Data Management, SAP Mobile Infrastructure
and SAP Web Application Server. SAP tools include SAP Composite Application
Framework, SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio and SAP Solution Manager.
Working with SAP NetWeaver, N2N is helping organizations to simplify their technology
choices using a single integrated product set that brings together the world of
platform technologies and business applications. Based on a flexible architecture,
SAP NetWeaver exploits Web services and uses a “services-based” paradigm.
It therefore represents a significant change in the way N2N can build and deliver
SAP packaged applications.
So what is new about N2N's solutions using SAP NetWeaver? Leveraging
SAP NetWeaver technology, N2N is able to deliver solutions that raise business performance
by improving:
People integration — empowering people with more intelligence
faster, in real time.
Process integration — supporting business
processes, stretching across applications and environments seamlessly.
Data integration — leveraging pre-configured business information content
to enable the consolidation, analysis and delivery of data from different applications
and repositories as an inherent part of the process.
What does all this mean?
It means that users are able to access financial, sales, customer or other
business-critical information from a single touch point rather than from multiple
applications. It means that decision making is more informed and therefore strategic,
so that discrepancies or issues can be detected right when they happen, enabling
an immediate response and improved service levels.
Finally, it makes developing targeted, process-focused applications easier, enhancing
integration at all levels. These hybrid applications provide users with exactly
the information they need and guide them through the processes necessary to perform
their job. Efficiency is improved and errors are reduced, but most importantly,
organizations are able to seize opportunities more swiftly.
While N2N has always worked to better engineer business processes, the SAP NetWeaver
platform provides the process integration and information content that can speed
development. We can also leverage SAP NetWeaver’s common application platform,
run-time environments to consolidate applications, ease the integration and
harmonization of future applications. Additionally, the integration, application
tools and components that make up SAP NetWeaver technology facilitate the design,
development and implementation of complex but increasingly business-essential
solutions—from enterprise portals to mobility, from business intelligence
to RFID.
